About

You can watch Going Places (1974) for free on Kanopy.

Two whimsical, aimless thugs harass and assault women, steal, murder, and alternately charm, fight, or sprint their way out of trouble. They take whatever the bourgeoisie holds dear, whether it’s cars, peace of mind, or daughters. Marie-Ange, a jaded, passive hairdresser, joins them as lover, cook, and mother confessor. She’s on her own search for seemingly unattainable sexual pleasure.

Sun-drenched, chaotic streets serve as a playground for two aimless drifters who treat theft and mayhem like a casual hobby. This kinetic slice of life finds its heart in the strange, domestic bond formed when a weary hairdresser joins their frantic, lawless orbit.
